The Grey Lands

[omgFIREBALLS]

On your first animancy teleport (portmanteau wanted!) experiment, where you're sent somewhere into Rymrgand's realm, a voice says something like: I conquered every city in the Grey Lands! They will remember my name.

And every time I hear it, I can't help but smile about how wrong she is, because I've never even heard of the Grey Lands to begin with, much less anyone conquering them. Of course not every lore/history tidbit is relayed to the player, so I'm curious here. Are the Grey Lands referenced anywhere else? Is our deceased conqueror correct, for the time being, that she lives on in memory?

Teleportancimation? Sounds like a Red Hot Chilly Peppers song though...

I never heard of the Grey Lands either. Maybe it's a secret land for the elderly?

We might have a doubly demented warlord on our hands. One who conquered the entire continent of the incontinent.

I was thinking about aniport. Sounds like any port, as in, any port in a storm. But I cannot turn it into a good pun

Anecdote:

During my time in Tashkent/Uzbekistan the local Intercontinental hotel lost its brand name due to bad/shady management decisions. So they had to rename the hotel and opted for...

*drumroll*...

The Incontinental

True story.

Who knows how many civilizations passed between creation of Gods and the present day.

Portimancy has a nice ring to it, but I do feel the ani- prefix should be part of the word.

 

Can't recall anything about the Grey lands in-game either: Perhaps it's just a dog from the Living Lands.
